Did you know it’s National Chocolate Week? From 13th until 19th October 2014, National Chocolate Week is a time to quench your cocoa cravings, not to mention honour the amazing chocolatiers and producers who create the tasty, melty sweet stuff we love and crave every so often. Celebrating the humble chocolate in all its forms – from truffles, fountains and cakes to bars, boxes and drinks – National Chocolate Week is the perfect excuse to indulge in seven solid days of choccie nomming. When you’re next scoffing a Snickers or gobbling down a Galaxy, remember the below facts...

1. The UK has the seventh highest consumption of chocolate in the world

2. In the UK, the average person eats 11kg of chocolate a year. This equates to about three bars a week!
